As the year 2023 comes to a close, we do well to
reflect on the past and think about the future.
The
questions worth considering:
1
What special blessings have we enjoyed from the Lord in the last year?
2
Did we leave a good example for others to follow?
3
Was there a lesson to be learned?
4
How much storing up treasure in heaven happened?
5
Did we spend enough time worshiping the Lord in private?
6
Were we in control or was the Lord Jesus in control?
7
What was the ratio of prayer time/screen time/pleasure
8
Was any one impacted by the evangelism we did?
9
Who was the most important person in our life in 2023?
And how
about 2024?
Planning?
Budgeting? Well, yes I am writing up my
diary with birthdays and phone numbers.
But a certain poem is most helpful:
God holds
the key of all unknown and I am glad
If other
hands should hold the key
Or if He
trusted it to me , I might be sad.
The very
dimness of my sight makes me secure
For groping
in my misty way
I feel
HIS hand, I hear HIM say
‘My help is
sure, My help is sure’
I cannot
read His future plans but this I know
I have
the smiling of HIS face
And all
the refuge of HIS grace
While here
below.
May all my readers be blessed with a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ as Lord.
